I run a very similar version to your Mirko deck and I might have a few suggestions as to what cards to remove.

First off it depends if you are playing multiplayer or 1v1. If your are playing multiplayer I would remove the "target player" spells such as Dream Twist, Tome Scour, Coerced Confession and Memory Sluice If you are playing 1v1 I would still remove a few of them because they are not overly powerful.

In general, I think Bitter Ordeal is sort of out of place here as you run both Leyline of the Void and Planar Void. Also, Bitter Ordeal requires permanents to be put into the graveyard, which means they need to have come from the battlefield. It is quite good however if you are running boardwipes.

I have played with Necromaster Dragon before and I felt like it was too much to pay for it's effects. I have also found that by the time I get Szadek, Lord of Secrets out the game is pretty much already over or I want to cast other spells.

Some more advice that I might give you is that I have found wheels such as Windfall and Whispering Madness to be quite effective especially with Library of Leng

I hope it all helped! Glad to help a fellow Mirko player.

Here is my deck if you need anything else to go off of. :)

Sorry, but they have to go, YES ALL OF THEM!

lucal13 Thanks for your comment! I've been torn about Necromaster Dragon and Szadek, Lord of Secrets for a while. I agree that their cost is too high... I took them out and added in Whispering Madness! I actually had it in an earlier version of this deck, but I hadn't really used it much. I'll give it another shot though.

Thanks!

lucal13 also, I wasn't really aware of that Gravestorm ruling, so thanks for pointing that out on Bitter Ordeal

Glad I could help! :)

My roommate used to run a grindy mill deck where he would use Sadistic Sacrament and similar cards to exile his opponents' lands straight out of their libraries and then he would make them mill till they hit a certain amount of lands. Something to consider with Mirko for sure.

Have you considered using Rise of Eagles as blockers? Looks like it would synergize nicely with this deck.

Rise of the Dark Realms

KaraZorEl yea I had thought about that, but since I have Leyline of the Void, Planar Void and other graveyard denial stuff I don't wanna risk cucking myself, feel me?
